Ken, What do you think about WTY for AS7E? What's the chance of discovering a new SNP that would separate it from other subgroups negative for Z58, Z63, and Z131? I'm aware of only one man who has tested 111 markers; he has asked about further testing, but I told him that WTY is the only other option at present. I've also considered trying to encourage AS7E's to contribute to the I1 project so that one of them could participate in WTY. If you think that's a good idea, and enough people were willing to contribute, how would the successful candidate be chosen? Lindsey

Now that Dr Krahn has been able to cover so many more sites in his WTY, coupled with the apparent deep time separation of 7e from other branches of Z58- Z63- Z131-, yet the young age of 7e MRCA, you have a decent chance of finding a snp for 7e. I'd pick the most "normal" or central 7e haplotype that you can if you proceed with this WTY.
